Esoerotic Transmutation: A Sovereign S*x Magick Ceremony with Crimson
Join us for this immersive ceremony where we will alchemize Esoerotic expression with dark feminine ritual to cast a powerful s*x magick spell. But don’t get it twisted: we won’t be wanking off! As a reminder, Esoeroticism is a way to access s*xual energy outside of intercourse, dahhhling. So instead, this experience will use dance and somatic practices to amplify our sovereign eroticism and then use esoteric techniques to transmute it into magickal manifestation.
